About us

2. We offer software consulting services to companies. Our clients call us to help them with scalability and delivery, or when the shit hits the fan.

Why should you join us?

You should join us if you like Type 2 fun. We are in a fantastic moment. We are a highly creative company. If you’re looking for a place where you can take ownership and exercise creativity, to execute and create, this is your place. We have a lot of freedom to do things and try things. Why? Because we don’t have investors or anything. We are completely independent, and we have our own savings to invest. We've a strong brand perception among our clients, and we’ve been building our business for 14 years. We were born in a remote place, in the Canary Islands, and we fought our way to work with the best companies in the United States.

We are now expanding our consultancy business, focusing on AI readiness. And then, we are also growing our research and product creation areas, where we are investing heavily in AIFindr.ai and LLMfindr.com.

We are a team of 80 people, soon 90 ;-)
